ACN urges Jonathan to sack Okupe

Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN, yesterday, insisted that Dr Doyin Okupe, President Goodluck Jonathan’s Senior Special Assistant on Public Affairs, is not fit to hold the position given his alleged past corruption and criminal conversion of state funds and warns the Economic and Financial Crime Commission, EFCC, against any cover up. In a statement in Ibadan by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party described as false and misleading a statement credited to the spokesman of the EFCC, Mr Wilson Uwujaaren, that he is not aware that Okupe is under investigation, as it is on record that Okupe was in the custody of the EFCC in Lagos for almost one month between July and August 2006, on account of a contract he obtained from Imo State but which he failed to execute after collecting  mobilisation fee
